Richard B the EMT Posted April 16, 2012 Share Posted April 16, 2012 Why do you need a script for medical pot? I'm wondering if the punctuation is off. Is that "Why?? Do you need a script for medical pot?" or "Why do you need a script for medical pot?" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ERDoc Posted April 18, 2012 Author Share Posted April 18, 2012 Eh, trauma is boring. I'd rather work next to a retirement village that doesn't allow DNRs. At least then you get to use your brain. If you've done one trauma, you done them all. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
